Gregory Allen Price

How they died

Less-than-lethal force

Gregory Allen Price was having a manic episode and his wife called 911. She told responding deputies to take her husband to the state mental hospital, but they took him to jail instead, where Price spent the night. Price was released the next morning, but no one notified his wife to come get him, so he began wandering the streets near the courthouse. That afternoon, two city officers encountered Price jumping on vehicles and causing other property damage. They tased Price 11 times as he rolled on the ground away from them. Price stopped breathing after he was handcuffed. He never regain consciousness.
